I Have to do a pour on top of a building 11 stories up. My remote has a personality of it's own. Can I trust it 132ft up in the air??

H..B.C. IS ON 2000 Concord.

I mounted the antenna above the cab. I'm hoping this helps.

as long as your batteries are good make shure you put in a fresh one you will have no problems i had aproblem with my 52 putz with a hbc radio as soon as i walked away from the pump or moved in between the pump and somting else i lost radio contact i moved the aerial to out side roof of my cab thinking that was it still had same problem traced it down to a dodgy cell in the batterie pack even tho it was just a few months old

speedy is it a regular practice to get so far away from the truck like that my boss would be pissed if he found out i was doing that he says my first priority is the pump if im not with the truck i cant tell if something goes wrong

HERE IS A LITTLE MORE INFO.

BAY ST TORONTO ONTARIO BELL SOUTH TOWER.

THEIR WILL BE 3 POLICE OFFICERS (TRAFFIC AND SECURITY)

3 ENGINEERS, 3 CITY OFFICIALS,4 CONCRETE WORKERS, MYSELF AND 1 EMPLOYEE, ALL FOR 3m3 of concrete....

It's for a pad that will hold a generator on the roof.

We pump into a wheel barrow we are doing it under the stars that is the only way I got a permit to block the street.

RC,

Do you think we may be able to see some video of this placement. Sounds like an interesting one.
